The five-minute animation illustrates the process of "high temperature hydrogen attack," which over the years damaged and weakened a nearly forty-year-old carbon steel heat exchanger, leading to a catastrophic rupture on the night of the accident.

This tool steel group is used to cut material at high temperatures. The H-Group has added strength and hardness for prolonged exposure to elevated temperatures. They are low in carbon and moderately high in additional alloys.

It occurs in carbon and low-alloyed steels exposed for an extended period to hydrogen under high pressure and at high temperature. This micrograph shows intergranular cracking caused by high temperature hydrogen attack in a C-0.5Mo steel.

The corrosion of carbon steel in the atmosphere and in many aqueous environments is best understood from a film formation and brake down standpoint. It is an inescapable fact that iron in the presence of oxygen and water is thermodynamically unstable with respect to its oxides. Because atmospheric corrosion is an electrolytic process, the ...

Steel properties at low and high temperatures Abstract: ... a decrease in carbon content, less than 0,15% is desirable a decrease in velocity of deformation a decrease in depth of `notch` an increase in radius of `notch`, e.g. 6 mm minimum an increase in nickel content, e.g. 9% a decrease in grain size; it is desirable, therefore, to use steel deoxidized with aluminium …

When iron is heated past 1,674 degrees Fahrenheit it is able to absorb more carbon, which is an ingredient that will increase the hardness of any steel product. This desired effect is used in several types of High Carbon (above 0.50 carbon) steel – Example: Tool Steel

Carbon Steel Degradation in High Temperature Hydrogen Service. The purpose of this alert is to inform you that there have been several reports of cracking -related issues with carbon steel piping and equipment in high temperature, high pressure hydroprocessing service at operating conditions where carbon steel was previously thought to be resistant to high temperature …

High-speed steel (HSS or HS) is a subset of tool steels, commonly used as cutting tool material.. It is often used in power-saw blades and drill bits.It is superior to the older high-carbon steel tools used extensively through the 1940s in that it can withstand higher temperatures without losing its temper (hardness).This property allows HSS to cut faster than high carbon steel…

Quenching: Carbon steel with at least 0.4 wt% C is heated to normalizing temperatures and then rapidly cooled (quenched) in water, brine, or oil to the critical temperature. The critical temperature is dependent on the carbon content, but as a general rule is lower as the carbon content increases. This results in a martensitic structure; a form ...
